Section 13: Exterior
Windows
Any ventilating window may permit water inside, especially during heavy rainstorms. Con-
densation will also cause water to accumulate on windows and in the tracks.
The window "glass" can normally be cleaned with a sponge and water. Use glass cleaner to
remove wax, oil, grease, dead insects, etc. After washing the glass, wipe it dry with a clean,
soft cloth.
Exterior Ladder (if so equipped)
Your recreation vehicle may be equipped with an exterior roof ladder. The RV roof has
decking under the rubber roof membrane to allow you to walk on the roof (with caution) to
do maintenance.
If your recreation vehicle is equipped with a roof ladder, do not leave
items attached to it while traveling. The ladder weight capacity should
not be exceeded (see ladder capacity label). DO NOT exceed this weight
limit. There should never be more than one person on the ladder at the
same time.
Self-Storing ladders: Make sure to pull all (there may be up to 4) pins
to unlock the ladder. All pins must be re-inserted when locking the lad-
der open for use. Failure to do so may result in serious personal injury.
Some models may be equipped with a self-storing ladder mounted to the side of the vehicle.
Self-Storing Ladder operation
1.
Pull all the locking pins (arrows) out of the lad-
der brackets (Fig. A).
2.
Pull the ladder down and toward you and it will
swing away from the RV.
3.
When the brackets are extended (Fig. B), re-
insert the pins (arrows) to lock the ladder in
place while in use.
4.
To return the ladder to the storage position; pull
the locking pins and push the ladder up and in
towards the RV.
When the ladder is in the storage position, re-insert
all locking pins to prevent the ladder from opening
while traveling.
